CERN Accelerating science

For the first time this year, the LHC is circulating beams of protons, following a 17-week-long extended technical stop

CERN has set up three seismic monitoring stations to listen to the earth’s vibrations and their impact on the LHC

The powering tests of the LHC circuits are a big part of the machine re-commissioning: almost 1600 circuits have to be tested in just few weeks

In March, a primary school named “ALICE” was inaugurated in Prévessin-Moëns. The name was chosen as a tribute to the ALICE experiment at CERN.

“The Higgs boson does not exist!” stated an e-mail recently sent to many of our colleagues...

The Super Proton Synchrotron is the last accelerator that had to awaken before the restart of the Large Hadron Collider in 2017

Who would ever think of spending a full Saturday indoors, coding for several hours? Highly motivated Django Girls participants!

The LHCb experiment finds intriguing anomalies in the way some particles decay

The accelerator chain and the experiments that it serves are gradually awakening after the extended year-end technical stop (EYETS)

New projects will be installed and commissioned at ATLAS and CMS to detect photon - photon collisions before the LHC restarts in May this year
